Wow. I didn't expect much when I downloaded your PACMAN, but I must say. I
am amazed! Wonderful job, Alessandro! I commend you on doing such a
magnificent job, though I do have one minor complaint. When you get one of
those super pill things (you know, those things that let you eat the
ghosts...), the Ghosts don't slow down, making it nearly impossible to catch
them. A simple fix would to just make PacMan speed up a bit, am I correct?
Just a thought...

PS: Congratulations, again, on doing such a great job...
